Chevalier Malfait: Added The Libby back under Penny's description, but with new text:
(heavily subverted; Aggie and friends see her this way for much of the comic's run but they're mostly wrong)
Reason: first, given that Penny is one of the title characters, she really shouldn't have fewer descriptive tropes and explanations than some of the supporting characters do (e.g. Helen, who's been absent from the comic for nearly a year as of December 2009). Second, although Twin Bird is correct that Penny has never truly fit The Libby stereotype, Aggie's and others' perception of her as such is so central to the comic that it cannot simply be ignored. I'd suggest that if, both on the main comic page and here, we can include Beautiful All Along for Karen with a "heavily subverted" qualifier, we can safely do so for Penny and The Libby.
